--- Quote from: V8MoneyPit on February 18, 2008, 18:11:13 ---Seats for £10.... bargain! Well worth the drive to get them.

Got a brand new rad for the 90 at £61 including delivery last week. They are £125 from Paddocks so I'm happy  :D

Oh, and a small sheet metal folder, new, for £16.78 plus postage  :D All the previous ones had gone for £45 or £50!

If you are buying something that someone is continually listing, just bid what you want to pay. If you don't get it keep bidding each time it is listed... eventually you will get one when nobody else is bidding. That's how I got the folder at a good price.

Also, look for listings that are ending at a silly time in the small hours. They tend not to get bid up at the last moment.

there were 2 seats of cloth RR seats listed - both finished about the same time - these I bid on starting at £10 - the other set were a BIN of £75 ..no brainer really... did want leather - but for £10 I aint gona complain...;)

I just got a bargain tonight as well.

For my rover 620 I got quoted £300+vat to fit a complete new exhaust and could have all gone pear shaped with the manifold.

I have just bought the complete exhaust (front,middle,rear sections) and a new cat inc postage £144  :dance: as I have bought the complete exhaust off the same guy he is going to include free of charge all the bolts I need and gaskets.  :dance:

all I have to do is cut the old and new front pipes and join them together so the manifold bolts dont get touched.

I love ebay.

Guardian.:
postage!
i get really hacked off ,some people say my postage is dear, imagine the weight of a winch bumper to  lug about, about 6 quids worth of bubblewrap, 3 / 4 quids worth of card , 2 quids worth of parcel tape (bearin mind i get this stuff cheap as we buy megga quantity), half an hour to wrap, half hour to take to carriers, petrol to get there, and the carriers 15 quid, and i charge gueess how much............. £15, and still some moan.

muddyjames:
my exhaust was £12.50 for 1 item £15 for 2-5 and £17.50 for more than 5. I was happy with £15 postage.

They are reasonably local to me but I couldnt get there and back for £15 of fuel.

i always give people a choice on postage i,ll do it for my price but your more than welcome to arrange your own collection :D
